Felldmanner

Sometimes called “trolls”, the Felldmanner are humans, littlefolk, and slavebred that have been so corrupted by the fellwright that they become almost unrecognizable as having their original forms. Some are so wracked by the radiation of the starfall that even their knot begins to fray, strands of their soul literally blasted away from the centuries old attack on Ganza. While Felldmanner are now rare in The Glassed Lands, with true-breeding Giants being far more common, they are common in The Char. Felldmanner are sometimes born to Giants, though most are descendants of other Felldmanner who have managed to survive the wilds of The Char. In most of the Char, when a Giant gives birth to a Felldmanner the child is left to die, though occasionally they are raised up within the tribe, and other times felldmanner collect in their own groups.

Felldmanner physically resemble very large humans, usually with grayish skin and shark-like eyes. Beyond those characteristics, however, their is little that can be said to be shared between trolls. Some have arms that stretch to the ground, others develop fangs, others grow thick fur, while others are born with extra limbs or such extensive lithoderms that they cannot move. Most are extremely violent, though some are almost catatonic in their apathy. They are mostly characterized by the possession of extremes, but not by the nature of them.
